The process of glycogen to glucose?
Glycogen is a highly branched polymeric structure containing glucose as the basic monomer. First individual glucose molecules are hydrolyzed from the chain, followed by the addition of a phosphate group at C-1. In the next step the phosphate is moved to the C-6 position to give glucose 6-phosphate, a cross road compound. Glucose-6-phosphate is the first step of the glycolysis pathway if glycogen is the carbohydrate source and further energy is needed. If energy is not immediately needed, the glucose-6-phosphate is converted to glucose for distribution in the blood to various cells such as brain cells.
What is the first step in the desalination process?
the first step is it passes through all the membranes
What is the first step in writing a formula for a binary ionic compound?
The first step is to establish which elements are in the compound.
What are the five steps of coal formation?
The first step is Peat, The second step is lignite, The third step is Bitimunous, and the fourth step is Anthracrite and Their is no Fifth step.
What is 98.8f in Celsius?
Conversion from Fahrenheit to Celsius is done in three steps: 1. Subtract 32 from value in degrees Fahrenheit. 2. Multiply result of step 1 by 5. 3. Divide result of step 2 by 9. Conversion formula: [°C] = ([°F] - 32) * 5 / 9 = (98.8 - 32) * 5 / 9 = 37.11 °C
What is the first step on the path to conversion?
Repent of your sins, being baptised in Jesus' name and receiving the baptism of the Holy Ghost
What is the last step in the sequence of events when cyclic AMP acts as a second messenger?
the last step is ofcourse glycogen breakdown.......before that inactive glycogen phosphorylase-b is activated and phosphorylated to glycogen phosphorylase-a by the help of activated phosphorylase kinase........ ......phosphorylase kinase was activated by activated protien kinase..and activated protien kinase was activated by cyclic amp...........

What molecule supplies the energy needed to join glucose molecules together to form a molecule of glycogen?
Generally speaking, no molecule supplies the energy to join a glucose into a growing glycogen chain. A previous step must be done and that is the formation of uridine diphosphate glucose (UDP-glucose or UDPG). Since the direct conversion of Glucose 1 phosphate (G1P) to glycogen and Pi is thermodynamically unfavorable (positive delta G) under all physiological Piconcentrations, glycogen biosynthesis requires the formation of UDPG by the combination of G1P with uridine triphosphate (UTP). UDPG's "high energy" status permits it to spontaneously donate glucosyl units to the growing glycogen chain. The step is catalyzed by the enzyme Glycogen Synthase, the glycosyl unit of UDPG is transferred to the C4-OH group on one of the glycogen's nonreducing ends to form an alpha(1-4)-glycosidic bond.
What enzyme regulates glycogenolysis?
Actually, three are the enzymes that intervene during glycogen breakdown (glycogenolysis).First, Glycogen phosphorylase (or simply phosphorylase) that catalyzes glycogen phosphorolysis (bond cleavage by the substitution of a phosphate group) to yield glucose-1-phosphate (G1P) releasing only one glucose residue that is at least five residues from a ramification point.The second enzyme is the Glycogen debranching enzymethat removes glycogen's branches, thereby permiting the glycogen phosphorylase reaction (see above) to go to completion. This enzymes also hydrolyzes alpha(1-6)-linked glucosyl units to yield glucose.Finally, Phosphoglucomutase that converts G1P to G6P which is also formed in the first step of glycolysis through the action of either hexokinase or glucokinase.
Glucose becomes glycogen is it anabolic or catabolic?
it is a catabolic reaction as it is breaking down from a large molecule to a smaller more complex one.

Create energy

WHat are the steps for an ira to roth conversion?
The conversion is a multi-step process. First, you must pay taxes on the money you convert from your deductible IRA. Second, you must consider your future tax rate. Next, you must agree to face penalties if you withdraw within five years of your conversion. It's a procession to be taken seriously.
